From the results of our initial testing, the BABC performs equally well in regards to flash mitigation as the 1.0. Ammo choice has a huge effect on flash signature as it does with any compensator or flash hider. We did some ammo comparisons with a 6.8 using a wide variety of ammo types and quality. The bottom line is; good ammo, less flash. We believe that you won't be disappointed with the BABC. As with all of our products, if you are not satisfied send it back to us for a full refund.
